CORE TEST
Big old 6ft Boothy struggled to get tucked in behind the Blade’s diddy screen.
The ‘new’ Blade had a bit of a hard time when it hit the market in 2017, struggling like buggery on race tracks and not really living up to its hype. At SBOTY, the SP1 Blade couldn’t match the other litre bikes on speed or lap time, but we were optimistic about how the standard Blade would perform on the road.
